More evidence is created each year that the collapse is a slow process. Some people have reported on the market collapse prior to 2000 (the Y2K and “DotCom” bubble crisis), and many more since 2008 (The Great Recession). The expectations by aware people that a systemic collapse is likely at sometime in the near future continues to mount. In fact I recall reading portions of a cryptic financial book (that belonged to a co-worker) back in the 1990’s that spoke of the inevitable collapse and the rise of Black Markets in response. Not predicting a time table has been an interesting observation of predictions coming to present day experiences. Today, People are seeing what is in front of thier faces and getting a dose of smelling salts.

by Michael Snyder, The Economic Collapse:
What would you say about an economy where businesses are shutting down faster than they are opening? Well, a shocking new study released by the Brookings Institution indicates that this is exactly what is happening in the United States. We are absolutely killing small businesses and the entrepreneurial spirit in this country, and as you will see below, the number of self-employed Americans has been on a downward trend for a decade even though our population has been steadily growing. Traditionally, small businesses have been the primary engine of job growth in this nation, so the fact that study after study has found that small business creation is being crippled in the United States is a really bad sign for our economic future.
Personally, I write about our long-term economic decline nearly every day, but even I had no idea that businesses were being destroyed faster than they were being created. According to the Brookings Institution, this first started happening in 2009…
